Worth knowing

Why it is interesting. Department is expanding its biomedical portfolio and wants biomaterials and medical device design alongside biomechanics, with core facilities like CAMI available.

Might not be for you. Preference is for biomechanics, with aging and AI-focused research given priority, so a pure polymer or materials profile may be a weaker fit.
